The Rowlett Creek Preserve, a City of Garland park, features a gazebo, picnic area with grill and multi-use trail. The trail is 15.6 miles long, constructed on a staked look system that allows trail users to create paths ranging from one to 15+ miles long.
The trail is generally flat, containing a mixture of tight, twisting paths and open straightaways. This area is popular with hikers and off-road bikers, frequented by members of the Dallas Off-Road Bicycle Association.
